We just moved to a house with a couple of fruit trees in the yard, one
seems to be some sort of apple tree. The fruit is about the size of a
cherry, but otherwise looks very similar in shape and color to a Red
Delicious. The tree itself is about 10-12 feet tall. Can anyone help me
identify it or point me to a helpful resource?

Thanks,
Laura


How do they taste? Are they coral pink in the middle, or white?
(it's unlikely you will ever find a definitive variety name for it)



Apple-y, a little tart. Kind of cream-to-yellow on the inside


My guess is it's a flowering crabapple.



That's probably it. It has a lot of fruit on it -- is there anything to "do"
with the fruit?

Thanks,
Laura



Jelly, pickles, or use them to flavor a batch of mead (which would
actually make it a cyser)
